background story: bout a month ago we were having a wicked cold spell, and the temp was right around 7* this piticular evening. I fiddeling around w/ a cargo load in the back of my jeep, so i unziped the rear window a bit and lifted it up. It was so cold that at the corner where the window was flexed it cracked. over several days the crack spread to a legitimate tear through the window plastic. When i called the dealer and asked them if it was covered (its brand new, and well under the 36k miles) they told me that a window wont crack due to the cold (which is why i figured the warente would cover it) and they told me to call my insurence.
Question: now, knowing that if i go through insurence it'll end up costing me more than it would just to get a new window myself, im wondering is it worth stuffing my boot up the dealership's keester or just taking the hit. do i have a claim?

It is a well known fact here (Utah) that you dont touch your soft top when it's freezing. Go to the dealer and push!
 
Insurance will prorate it out over the time you've had it. That's what they did when my soft top ripped clear off. Cost me over $600, and that was after insurance paid half....yeah, I got screwed. Hammer the dealer till they make it right!!!
